A handful of bills dealing with home foreclosures in Hawaii have been introduced at the state Legislature this year, including one that would have the state pay off troubled mortgages, then rent or sell the homes back to occupants.

At least eight foreclosure-related bills were proposed this month, many of which seek to amend a law enacted last year that set up new rules for foreclosures but isn't working as intended.
